Context: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4 has provided spectra of several new PG 1159 stars and DO white dwarfs. This increase in known hot H-deficient compact objects significantly improves the statistics and helps to investigate late stages of stellar evolution. Aims: From the optical SDSS spectra, effective temperatures and surface gravities are derived in order to place the observed objects in an evolutionary context. Especially the connection between PG 1159 stars and DO white dwarfs shall be investigated. Method: Using our non-LTE model atmospheres and applying chi^2-fitting techniques, we determine stellar parameters and their errors. We derive total stellar masses for the DO white dwarfs using model evolutionary tracks. Results: We confirm three PG 1159 stars, with one showing ultra-high excitation ion features, and one sdO which we originally classified as a PG 1159 star. Additionally, we re-analysed the known PG 1159 star, PG 1424+535, with our new models. Furthermore, we present the first spectral analyses of thirteen DO white dwarfs, three of which show M-star features in their spectra, while two display ultra-high excitation ion features.
We present a spectral analysis of 16 DAO white dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4. With our NLTE H+He model grid, we derived photospheric parameters for these objects. We compare our new results to literature values and divide th
We present ugriz photometry and optical spectroscopy for 28 DB and DO white dwarfs with temperatures between 28,000K and 45,000K. About 10 of these are particularly well-observed; the remainder are candidates. These are the hottest DB stars yet found
SDSS (DR1 and DR2) has recently proposed 7 new DO white dwarfs as well as 6 new PG1159 stars. This is a significant increase in the known number of DOs and PG1159 stars. Our spectral analyses provide stellar parameters which can then be used to deriv
We present a model atmosphere analysis of ten new DO white dwarfs and five new PG 1159 stars discovered in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR1, DR2 and DR3. This is a significant increase in the number of known DOs and PG 1159 stars. DO white dwarfs are
White dwarfs with helium-dominated atmospheres comprise approximately 20% of all white dwarfs. Among the open questions are the total masses and the origin of the hydrogen traces observed in a large number and the nature of the deficit of DBs in the
